Lena Horne At The Waldorf Astoria

LP (Item 549779) RCA, 1957 — Condition: Very Good+
...

Very Good + (plus)

  • Vinyl should be very clean, but can have less luster than near mint.
  • Should still shine under a light, but one or two marks may show up when tilted.
  • Can have a few small marks that may show up easily, but which do not affect play at all. Most marks of this quality will disappear when the record is tilted, and will not be felt with the back of a fingernail.
  • This is the kind of record that will play "near mint", but which will have some signs of use (although not major ones).
  • May have slight surface noise when played.

Additional Marks & Notes

If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.

Lena Horne

Lena Like Latin
CRC, 1961. Very Good+
A set that features lots of great arrangements from Shorty Rogers – upbeat and jazzy, in ways that aren't exactly the Latin modes promised by the title, but still pretty darn great! Rogers his hitting nicely here on all burners – that leaner 60s approach he used in some of his own ... LP, Vinyl record album

Lena Horne

Soul
United Artists, 1966. Very Good
Groovy Lena Horne from the 60s – an album that's a heck of a lot hipper and more swinging than most of her sets from a decade before! That unmistakable Horne style of singing is still very much in place here – but the backings are often tightly punctuated, with a gently soulful groove ... LP, Vinyl record album

Anita Kerr Singers

Mellow Moods Of Love
RCA, 1965. Sealed
Arrangements by Marty Paich! LP, Vinyl record album

Vicky Lane with Pete Candoli

I Swing For You
RCA, 1959. Very Good
A pretty weird one! Vicky Lane's always been one of the more dramatic singers from RCA's 50s gal catalog – and she's working here with LA jazzer Pete Condoli, who conducts a small jazz combo with lots of added percussion! The style's halfway between straight vocals and hi-fi type numbers ... LP, Vinyl record album

Nina Simone

Here Comes The Sun
RCA, 1971. Very Good+
Classic RCA work from the great Nina Simone – and an album that definitely shows Nina hitting more of the soul spectrum than some of her folk and jazz work of the 60s! The set's got these wonderful arrangements from Harold Wheeler – a bit electric, and done in a way that takes familiar ... LP, Vinyl record album

Frankie Randall

Mods & The Pops
RCA, 1968. Near Mint-
A bit of a groovy switch for this great and under-recognized singer – a set that updates his sound with some 60s swingers that include "I Can See For Miles", "Mr Dream Merchant", "Hard To Believe", "Lelainia", "Woman Woman", and "Let's Go ... LP, Vinyl record album

Ethel Ennis

My Kind Of Waltztime
RCA, 1965. Near Mint-
Arranged and conducted by Dick Hyman. LP, Vinyl record album
RCA, 1964. Very Good+
Groovy backings from Sid Bass – and titles that include "Thrill Me", "Show Me A Man", "Wild Is Love", "Like Love", "Mr Wonderful", "For Every Man There's A Woman", and "Since I've Been To You". LP, Vinyl record album

Eartha Kitt

Thursday's Child
RCA, 1956. Very Good+
Henri Rene and his orchestra accompany Eartha on this record named after her 1956 autobiography. There is an tiny excerpt from her book on the back cover but the songs don't seem to necessarily reflect her life story. It's a nice collection of some relatively tame tunes in that throaty Earth Kitt ... LP, Vinyl record album

Harry Belafonte – Best
RCA (Japan), 1950s/1960s. Near Mint- Gatefold
(Early 70s issue in a booklet cover, with obi. Cover has some spotty aging inside the gatefold.) LP, Vinyl record album

Carmen McRae

Sound Of Silence
Atlantic, 1968. Near Mint- Gatefold
One of Carmen McRae's great 60s albums for Atlantic Records – a set that's still strongly jazz-based overall, but which seems to have an extra dose of soul at the bottom! The approach is a bit like the best late 60s sides by Nancy Wilson or Marlena Shaw – rooted in jazz, but hipper ... LP, Vinyl record album
